When I was mtb'ing in the mountains in Canada (5500ft base, up to 9000ft), I felt like I'd just started cycling again I was getting out of breath so quickly.

Ran support for this race back in the mid-90's once. These guys aren't human. Another good one is Montezuma's Revenge. Which sadly appears to be struggling these days....
